Outlook — The Vikings were 22-3 last season and finished third in Class 5A. Seaman has made nine consecutive state berths and nine straight top-three state finishes, with five 5A state titles since 2004. "We'll return an experienced group of varsity players in 2013,'' Steve Bushnell said. "Our pitching staff looks to be an area of depth and strength as all 22 victories return from our pitching staff a year ago.''

Outlook — The T-Birds were 12-9 last season after winning the 5A state title in 2011. The T-Birds return five players who received first or second-team All-City recognition last season. "This year we look to rely on the experience of our eight seniors to lead us to a successful season,'' Schmidt said.

Outlook — The Trojans will be looking on last year's 2-19 record. "This year's team brings good team chemistry and good work ethic to the table,'' Voth said. "Overall we are still a young group but the guys care about one another and care about improving.''

Outlook — The Chargers are coming off a 10-11 season. "We have been getting better year by year and have a good chance of continuing that this year,'' Tetuan said. "We have a lot of experience coming back this year and if those guys can be leaders and get the team going in the right direction we will have a successful season. Our next step is getting to state, not just competing.''
